Improving our children and staff's wellbeing outdoors
No comments North Coast
We are a third sector Early Years Centre based in West Kilbride with access to a large garden and forest area. Our aim is to get our children outside as much as possible in the nursery day. This has proved to greatly enhance their mental and physical wellbeing but it can mean that we are out in all weathers given the Scottish climate. We are looking to try to make our children and staff as comfortable as possible whilst outside so that passing showers or the colder weather is easier to brave.

Next project to revamp an area of the garden would benefit from 2 benches.
Improvement to path leading into the Glen from the B7047 at the Old Tractor
No comments North Coast
Known as Gilmour's Path, the pedestrian lane which provided safe access to the Glen away from the vehicular access has fallen into disrepair and is now so boggy and overgrown as to be rendered unusable. The proposal is to clear the overgrown vegetation and to improve the path by laying Type 1 stone making the entrance safer for pedestrians. Friends of Kirkton Hall Glen has the support of the various sports groups using the Glen's facilities and West Kilbride Environmental Group in this proposal.
Giving people choice in our food larder and increasing their dignity
No comments North Coast
We are Largs food hub and have recently started on Nourish Scotland's Dignity Project. We believe giving people as much choice as possible is one way to provide dignity in food provision. We would like to provide a pay forward scheme for our local church of the Nazarene which provides meals for £2 and children are free. If we provide a free ticket and encourage them to go and perhaps by going ourselves this might show that it is ok and take away the stigma of excepting charity.
Improvement of access to West Kilbride Glen from B7047

We require to upgrade access to the WK Glen at the discrete entrance from the B7047. This is to permit the renovation of the dilapidated blaes football pitch into a grassed multi use area for the Community.
